Yeah, this is pretty horrible. NY Mag had this amazing video showing the other networks rightly respecting the moment of silence while NBC plods right along with the Kardashians of all things.
This morning, eleven years from September 11, 2001, there was a moment of silence in Washington, D.C. and New York City at 8:46 a.m., when the first plane hit the towers. Most news networks, including ABC, CBS, Fox, MSNBC, and CNN, interrupted programming to honor the anniversary, breaking the quiet only with an extra solemn rendition of “Taps.” Locally, WNBC cut into the Today show with 9/11 coverage, but nationally, NBC trucked right through with an interview of Keeping Up With the Kardashians mom Kris Jenner.
